World No 22 Srikanth played with dexterity to win 21-15, 14-21, 24-22 against the South Korean Son Wan. He will face Sakai in the final on Sunday at the Jakarta Convention Center.

The first game looked like a cake-walk for the Indian ace shuttler – who won 21-15 with ease. The only point where Son looked a bit dangerous was when he came close 10-12 from 6-11 but failed to capitalise at the end.

In the second game, World No 1 Son made a come back after trailing 4-6 to rely on his deft net-game to equalise one game apiece with a 21-14 win.

The final game remained stiff until the very end with none of the shuttlers giving any space to the opponents. Son edged ahead with a 13-10 lead but Srikanth kept firing winners to equalise at the 14-point mark and even held a point lead.

But Son didn't flinch and kept rallying hard till the end to find crucial points. With the match reaching a tipping point in terms of intensity at 20-all, both the shuttlers felt the heat. While Srikanth banged a smash at the net, Son erred in hitting long. But the Indian kept his nerve to edge past Son and win 24-22.

In the final, Srikanth will eye his third Superseries title after victories in the 2014 China Open and the 2015 India Open.
